Everybody should feel free to communicate with others
Everybody should feel free to communicate with others
What can be more normal than that?
But, many times, when we want to add more structure, more processes and order into an operation, exactly this order creates communication channels (read: rules) in such a way that prevents people to communicate with the others.
This is a big danger when a company is “getting big(ger)”.
Make sure this doesn’t happen in your company !

Avira's Free AV is celebrating 10 years
Quote from the Techblog:
“Amazing! Avira’s free antivirus solution, Avira AntiVir Personal available at our www.FreeAV.com web site, is now getting 10 years old! For ten years, we added an additional security layer around companies by protecting the employees personal computers from malware infections for free.
Amazon: Bestsellers Electronics and Photo
The free version always offered the latest antivirus techniques available, and the best detection rates and superb protection due to heuristics detections. For us that is a good reason to celebrate. For ten days our present to our customers is an additional runtime of 10 months if you buy a usual 1 years license of our premium products or the small business suite.
Happy birthday, FreeAV!
